A field of gold
I captured this beautiful view just outside Ashbourne, County Meath on Ireland's East coast. I was driving by a few days ago, and was struck by the sea of yellow, and never stopped. When I passed a few days later, I said feck this, and I pulled in, darted across the road and captured these shots. I think it looks especially nice against the cobalt blue back drop, which is not characteristic of our little country :o)
This song popped into my head when I saw this field of gold today. If you're not familiar with the song, have a little lesson, it will be medicine to your ears :o)
I'm pretty sure it is Rapeseed, which has become a popular crop in Ireland recently, I guess to produce rapeseed oil, which is seen as a healthy alternative to standard vegetable oil.
I tell you one thing, nature is beautiful, and when the sun shines, I appreciate it all the more, as all the vibrant colours around us get to show of their rich array of colours like a proud peacock spreading it's plume of feathers.
Hopefully you enjoyed that post.
I try to post most days, so feel free to follow me and check out some of my other posts here.
Peace Out

Tip! for the lovely Irish countryside! Rapeseed is the same as canola, right?
Yep, one and the same.. its a relatively new crop to Ireland and is a non-GM alternative to the US canola oil which is typically GM..
